Thanks for the information.
IMHO, one of the packages should be removed from unstable and testing.

I wonder, why pysocks has been packaged instead of updating socksipy?
After all, one seems to be the (compatible) successor of the other.

Where is the Debian packaging VCS for pysocks?
I didn't find it in the DPMT git repo.

Cheers
